    I don't mind that, personally. I do think there's not much point, because nobody more than five yards away can see anything except smudgy blue.

    ^This.

    Couldn't honestly blame him if he did, really I haven't enough knowledge of electronics to guess what the fault actually is, unless it's decayed winding insulation in the pot of the offending pickup.

    It's not likely to sell unless you provide some pictures and a description

    Nice colour! (I'm sure the rest of it's lovely as well

    Errm... does he mean that the volume control works?? I presume not.

    That's quite amazingly bad. I bet it dives like crazy, as well.

    That's very silly. I quite like the idea, but the thing itself makes me wonder whether there are lots of magic mushrooms in the fields nearby.

    £200 seems pricey, but they are nice. I'll be watching with interest (not going to buy, already got one and I don't really do white basses for some reason).

    There once was a chap who played cello He said that it made him feel mellow Then he borrowed a bass And got quite a long face And now he's an unhappy fellow. No, I don't know what it means either.

    I've no personal experience with this, but it does occur to me that changing string types (rounds to flats to tapes, or whatever) would change the feel of the strings so it might compensate a bit. Obviously it might not work well for your public playing.

    I've a 61mm-width one which would need the headstock shaping (it's a paddle). That might suit.

    Hm. I may have a use for a defretted Peavey neck. Possible three-way trade here?

    You could always put some cyanoacrylate on the excess finish in the bridge recess, to see if it causes blooming

    Nice, though I have my doubts about the look of the headstock - I think it's the central dark wood, makes it look a bit like the Kramer split aluminium ones. Where are you based?
  18. alyctes
    It's a bit on the black side for me, but that's just me being traditional (I like wood ). I should think it's really, really nice to play. Not in my reach, I fear.
  19. alyctes
    Looks nice

    I've had a think, and all I can really do is give your thread a free bump. Good luck with your sale!
  22. alyctes
    I was, but that's quite a long time ago, and I found one. Someone else, I guess.
  23. alyctes
    That shouldn't be around long. Sorry to hear of the surprise. GLWTS!
  24. alyctes
    Ah, ok. Thanks.

    These are lovely. I've got an orange one and a fretless (reboarded) in blue; my favourite basses. Nylon-wound strings go well on them Why Yamaha stopped building them I've no idea.
